Donor Giving Societies The Shoe Box Society for Planned Giving The Shoe Box Society for Planned Giving is designed to honor those who utilize estate planning to support the mission of the NATA Foundation. These commitments hearken back to the visionaries who founded NATA in Kansas City in 1950. Those pioneers undoubtedly knew their efforts would benefit all who would follow them in the profession much more than themselves. Membership is open to those who have made a planned gift or who have designated the NATA Foundation in their estate plans. Any size commitment qualifies an individual for membership. Please contact the NATA Director, Jennifer Yoder, at (972)532-8805 to discuss your planned giving options. You may also complete the enrollment form found here. Benefits to Joining In addition to knowing that a planned gift will benefit the NATA Foundation at the AT profession in the future, you also have the opportunity to motivate others to make a planned gift or to designate the NATA Foundation in an estate plan.

It will give them the tools necessary to provide the best care possible. It will meaningfully help to solidify the athletic trainer’s role as the healthcare provider of choice for the physically active. In recognition of its 25th Anniversary, the NATA Foundation created the AT Loyal Giving Society. NATA Member’s donations are lifetime accumulated through the end of each calendar year.
